6 months later...

Juvia's POV

"Gray-sama hurry up! Lucy-chan and Natsu-san are waiting!" I called joyfully by the front door.

"Ok ok I'm coming!" He replied as he hurriedly walked towards the door, slipping on his black coat.
"So now you're ready to go.." he muttered to himself.

I smiled as I looked at him in his black suit and bowtie.
This takes me back to our wedding day.. awh

"Juvia, Juvia! Let's go!" Gray-sama said, snapping me out of my daydream.
"Oh right!" I took his hand and smiled warmly, "You look very handsome Gray-sama."

There was the lightest splash of pink on his cheeks as he tugged uncomfortably on his collar. "You look as stunning as always," he replied, a small smirk on his face as he kissed my cheek.

"Arigato.. Now let's go!" I cheered as I ran out the front door, pulling Gray-sama along with me.

I stumbled slightly in my heels, nearly tripping over my light pink dress.
My other free hand gripped the bottom hem in a large wad before I continued my fast walking.
Why am I wearing pink you may ask? Well.. this is my bride's maids dress..

AWWWEEE I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY'RE GETTING MARRIED!!!

"H-hey Juvia? Can you uh.. slow down a little?" Gray-sama pleaded, out of breath, "And maybe not squeeze my hand so.. tight?"
"Oh! Sorry Gray-sama! Juvia's just excited!" I chirped in reply as I slowed into a tranquil walk and loosened my grip on his hand.
"I-I can tell," Gray-sama sighed in relief.
I dropped my bundle of dress material and leaned my head on my husband's shoulder. We were approaching the Heartfilia Manor, the location in which Lucy-chan and Natsu-san's wedding was currently in progress.

Gray's POV

The ceremony was already in progress and I knew I wasn't going to hear the end of this from Erza.

What kind of friend am I? Being late to the wedding of the people who started it all.. who made my life the picture of perfection it is now..

We took our seats casually, trying not to draw too much attention. I blushed in embarrassment as Lucy glared at me.
Seriously, sometimes I don't know who's scarier, Lucy or Erza.
Just then I glanced behind me and saw an evil auora surrounding Titania as she stared daggers in my direction.

Nope Erza. DEFINITELY Erza.

I gulped as I turned my attention back to the ceremony just at Lucy and Flame brain kissed. Juvia stood and clapped happily, tears of joy swelling in her eyes. I stood too and clapped as Lucy threw her bouquet into the crowd.

**Time Skip At the wedding reception**

Lucy's POV

"Oi Juvia, Gray, I can't believe you were late!" I scolded, wagging my finger at them.
"Gomensai Lucy-chan, Juvia was having some problems... With uh her heels!" Juvia sputtered out nervously.
Gray looked over at her curiously but said nothing.

What's up with her?

Then I noticed how loose-fitting her dress was..
Did she mean to get a size too big?
Well come to think out it, she has been wearing really baggy t-shirts lately..
Most of the time she wears her usual navy dress...
